About Stefanie

Stefanie Moreno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Virginia with about 10 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, addictions, relationship struggles, grief, and related issues listed in her profile. Stefanie speaks English and practices in Virginia.

She approaches therapy in practical terms. Sessions emphasize helping people process traumatic events and learn ways to regulate intense emotions. Stefanie draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to address unhelpful thinking and to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills.

Her background includes work across public and private behavioral health settings. That has included group homes, psychiatric facilities, and private practice. Those settings shaped how she addresses crisis moments and longer-term change.

Stefanie also uses relationship-focused work when relevant. She employs Imago relationship ideas to help people notice interaction patterns, improve communication, and address control or codependency concerns. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs help finding or keeping motivation to change behaviors.

Practical goals are a focus in sessions. People commonly bring issues such as sleep and eating problems, impulsivity, panic attacks, caregiver stress, blended family concerns, and body image problems. Stefanie helps people talk through these concerns, develop manageable strategies, and build skills for daily life.

BHow sessions work

How Stefanie uses evidence-based methods online

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical changes in behavior. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic symptoms, and eating or sleep problems. DBT, dialectical behavior therapy, emphasizes learning concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It helps when emotions feel overwhelming or impulsivity is a problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stefanie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together based on progress and preferences.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it simpler to continue work during life changes like pregnancy, caregiver duties, or relocation. The focus is on practical ways to apply CBT and DBT skills between sessions and on keeping therapy usable alongside work, family, and other commitments.
